Live plants in gecko viv

Hey all

I know this is a snake forum but I've gotten info on here and figure a live plant viv is the same regardless of what scaley thing is moving around inside. So I'm in the process of trying to source a 24x18x24 exo terra that comes with a canopy which will be the home to a pair of female crested geckos. Part of the reason I want to try a live plant setup is A maintaining humidity in the tank especially winter being in Canada and all B I really like the natural look and C better air quality in the room. Now a few starter questions

1 To have a live plant setup does it require a bioactive substrate?

2 What substrate would be needed for a bio active or if not what are good substrates to use? I can use my aquarium water for watering and nutrients.

3 What kind of maintenance is required?
